WWOOF: Bicycles of Florence

While ambling through the side streets of Florence, marching along the ancient stone roads, bicycles of all shapes and colors are seen everywhere. As Florence will be hosting the World Cycling Race Championship in just a couple weeks, I thought I would pay homage to the bicycle culture found throughout the city. Classic, modern, or just plain shabby, it seems like everyone in Florence gets around by bike. Being a bike enthusiast myself, I was almost as captivated by them as much as I was by the historical buildings of the Renaissance.
